I tried that once earlier and didn't find howto. One would think MS would have 
some Teams presence on
github. Turns out they do but not for reporting bugs on Teams itself.
Anyhow, I got in touch with a MS dev. that may be able to help out. I do 
suspect this buried far
down in electron framework and it will take time until all layers has been 
update and released.

Now about the v4 patch, what is the verdict ?
